    It helps to be nice.

    My teacher, at the end of class, always told us, “See you next week, be nice to someone!” I think I kind of adopted it as another motto. Shu told me that she would not have been friends with me had I not been nice, and I always found that really heartwarming. I try my best to treat others as they would treat me, but sometimes people end up calling me “fake” for that. I’m sure if I were meaner, I’d just be called a myriad of other things, anyway (as if we aren’t already).

    Ultimately, what other hurtful things people say shouldn’t matter. We make videos because we both love games and we want to have fun. We want to share that enjoyment with others. It’s really as simple as that.  ^^

    I’m really glad I met the people I did. Although we’re probably going to be faced with even more problems in the future, it doesn’t hurt to hold your head high and march on in life regardless. We’re not perfect, of course, but a little kindness goes a long way.

      3 days ago i got a new computer. Its a MacBook that i got for free, because my other computer is really slow and my friend didn’t need hers anymore. Well, then i though that now that i have a really great computer I’m gonna download and play LoL. But its not out for Mac ;A;
      But so what? There’s gameplay at Shurelilys channel – so that is you being nice and helping us poor mac-fags out :D thank you, now i don’t have to “call you a myriad of things” (n-not that I would ever d-d-do that – well maybe good thing ^_^)… baaaii

      Good read. I agree with it. Being nice can turn one persons day from bad to good and even produce friendships like with you and Shu xD. Good read is good.

      Yeah! Cheers to kindness and nice things and stuff! May nice things always prevail~! And I definitely agree with those last few words “a little kindness goes a long way.”, it certainly does and it’s worth it~

      People are really strange.

      For whatever reason, whenever I read or hear something like this, I get mixed feelings. At first, I feel really happy, because it’s nice to read something pleasant like this; shortly after I feel like complete shit because I’m sort of envious. Right now I’m not doing anything productive with my life. I’m still not in college, I’m unemployed, and all I do is play MMOs, watch anime, and eat really unhealthy pre-packaged microwaved foods. (Thankfully I’m still somehow in good shape, but that’s irrelevant). The whole lifestyle that society plans out for us isn’t my thing. I’m too hipster for that. (Jokes).

      Anyway, I’m getting off on too many tangents. I respect and admire every person, (especially those around my age), who manages to make a living doing whatever they want to do, not what everyone else does. Shit, I’d cut off a limb to make money doing something like that. But that’s just it… I don’t really know what you get out of it in terms of money or anything, but I’m pretty sure just the happiness from the videos you make is enough to make you do it. I’m guessing that’s why you started in the first place. As a creator, the feeling of making something is great, and the feeling of making other people happy is even greater.

      TLDR:
      FUCK THE HATERS.
      FUCK THE PO-LICE.
      Keep doing your shit gurl.
      More kawaii videos.

      I also think that being nice can go a long way, I actually met a friend online who I have been skyping and playing online games with due to the fact one on a game called Dofus I stopped getting my own equipment to help hunt the materials for his items. We carried on playing after that and we were helping more and more people out. It was a UK community on the game so as we were skyping more and more people got invited to our calls and it has grown to a group of friends which now meets twice a year at a London expo!

      At my workplace today there was a really gloomy mood. Well thats normal at 9am in the morning. But then an old man came in. Smiling and telling a bad (really bad) joke. But still he laughed and everyone of us laughed 2. Saved the day. He even came back and had some gifts for my boss (a sweet chestnut necklace). Since then everyone was kinda happy and my end of the workday came rlly quick.

      I remember a picture I saw at my traineeship with special educated need kids. Friendliness is miasmic.

      Ditto. Keep on keepin’ on. I think if people were to treat each other just a little better, maybe they wouldn’t be stuck hating one another for trivial differences. And if it’s any consolation, we don’t think you’re fake. On the contrary, we think you’re quite real if you keep making an effort to treat others nicely while having fun at the same time. Just sayin’.

      I really like that motto. A little kindness doesn’t hurt anyone and might cheer someone up. Random acts of kindness are sometimes what you need to have a bad day turn into a great day. Kudos on making videos for YOU. I love how you guys do the commentaries with the pictures. Just makes it awesome and different. Kinda inspires me to post videos too but not sure if I’m gonna get around to that ^^; Anyways, good luck on getting an awesome fanbase!

      Ciao.

      Heh, it’s always good to see there are other people who truly think as I do about this. Sometimes I get really mad at something and think to myself “damn it I’m done being nice, maybe some selfishness is all I need after all”. Then I realize it’s not that simple to change something like this ^^”

      And the people calling “fake” someone whose kindness they don’t understand, well… If they can’t understand…

      I like your attitude, Lily :) I hope your fans worldwide get the best of it.

      It feels good to be nice, even if things in your life still aren’t lining up because at least you have a clear conscience and no heavy burden of guilt weighing down on your shoulders. Unfortunately, in my case, it lands me in the “Friend Zone” with the girls every time. Oh well, when I finally snap and entertain my deep seated desire to conquer the world and rule it with an Iron Fist and they suddenly want me, I will laugh in their faces for throwing away such a golden opportunity as becoming the First Empress of the World.

      Hello. I kind of know how you feel, because I always try to be nice, even to strangers or the people I just met. Sometimes it works, but then there’s a group of people that just doesn’t like you…because. Don’t ever let them spoil you. If you WANT to be nice to people then…well, I think you’re already nice! There’s nothing fake about that. I just wanted to share my thoughts with you.

      I also wanted to say that I love the drawings on your website. I don’t know if you’re the one who made them, but they’re lovely. If you have some spare time and you want to actually create a game, then there’s software called “RPG Maker”. I just thought that with those drawings and your love for games, you could do an amazing RPG or adventure game. If you’re interested then I suggest you to use “RPG Maker VX Ace”, it has nice options and cute little graphics.

      Love your voice-acting.
      Please stay the way you are.

      I have a question for you, Lily, but I think that anyone would be able to answer it too.

      Uhm… I’m male but I’m kinda shy myself… Not exactly “shy”… But… Like Shurelia, in which I’m very talkative and somewhat annoying with the people I like (Also picky with the people who a hang with *forever alone*) but… Whenever I’m around people who I don’t really know I just shut myself and listen some mind-generated elevator music…

      I also have the tendency of trying to friendzone girls that I know they like me but I don’t really want to break their hearts… Is that wrong :x ? I just… I’m scared of relationships in general T.T So yeah… My other question is:

      What would you advise me to do in order to overcome being shy? I just think that there are way too many people that I should still be friends with… But I really feel like I’m way too careful myself…

      Argh, blast it, it’s a really long story to put all the details here T__T I need help…
